The Alaska Highway

This afternoon at about 4pm I got to Dawson Creek (DC) and the beginning of the Alaska Highway, milepost "0". So after 918 miles (1,469 km) since leaving home, I made it to the beginning. Today I drove 440 miles (705 km) over roads through the mountains with lots of curves, hills and frost heaves. So far 965 miles (1,545 km) in two days. An awesome drive and a great adventure, yeah!

Early morning over the snow fields.

I love the determined march of the solitary fence posts in a snowy field.

About Me

I love to travel, it restores my faith in humanity. I love my friends, they ground me. Though my heart belongs to Alaska, a place I lived for 20 wonderful years, I am bound to no one place and seem to find the need to explore our world regularly. One of these days I want roots, or at least a place for all my souvenirs.
